Mrs. Prudence T. Bell died at Indianapolis Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Winfield S. Moffett. The cause of her death was heart trouble and she had been more or less ailing for some time. She was seventy-eight years of age and until a few years ago had lived almost her whole life in Crawfordsville, where she has hundreds of friends. Of late she has been making her home with Mrs. Moffett and with her son Tom Bell, also of Indianapolis. The latter is in town today making arrangements for the burial which will occur tomorrow afternoon at Oak Hill cemetery. The remains will arrive on the 1 o'clock train and be taken immediately to the cemetery where brief services will be conducted by Rev. H.L. Nave. Mrs. Bell was a sister of Mrs. S.E. Williams, who lives at 414 East Main Street. - kbz
